10 Key Stats Ahead Of Newcastle United Vs Arsenal

4 - Goals Scored By NUFC Vs Northampton Town, The First Time They Have Netted That Many Since March 1st 2014

Florian Thauvin, Siem de Jong, Daryl Janmaat and even Mike Williamson all found the back of the net for Newcastle during their comfortable 4-1 Capital One Cup Second-Round victory over Northampton Town on Tuesday night. That game saw the Magpies score four times in a single game for the first time since March 1st 2014, when they also triumphed 4-1 - this time against Hull City at the KC Stadium, when Alan Pardew infamously headbutted David Meyler. It may have only been against League Two opposition, but the fact NUFC have netted four times in a match for the first time in 18 months is surely significant psychologically.
